Torbox without password?

Opened this issue · 6 comments

if I set WLAN* password to empty it just doesn't do anything.

*edit

which password? User password for SSH? Lan Passowrd? Tor Control password?

Please describe what is just doesn't do anything.

Anyway, I probably think doing anything is the expected behavior as you should have a passowrd for security reasons and I think that of the aforementioned passwords class, they all check if password is not empty to set a new password, so leaving it blank is not gonna work.

Use a strong and secure password, use a password manager such as keepassxc to help on your journey.

Sorry, setting WLAN password to nothing/empty doesn't do anything, I'd want to have no WLAN password. KeePass is great!

Like: it doesn't remove pasword from WLAN, it just goes back to menu.

I feel like sharing internet with someone without having to worry about what they do online is a valid use case?

Here is the code

if [ ! -z "$INPUT" ]; then

The maintainer radio24 will respond about letting the password be empty or not.

Hello all
Sorry for my late reaction; currently, I'm sick in bed. This is one of these requests, which we should add to a "toxic" menu that is only available in an advanced mode. Usually, people want to have a password and removing the check is dangerous because if someone does something wrong, he could unintentionally remove the password.

@vanjavk are you able to change the code on your TorBox by yourself?

Hey, yeah. I've edited /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf

commented 3 lines and changed wpa to 0. Now it works without password.

wpa=0
#wpa_passphrase=torbox123
#wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
#rsn_pairwise=CCMP

on unrelated note, big download button leads to old version of torbox download on frontpage:

PS: get well asap :)

Thank you for the hint with the wrong download path! It is now fixed.
